Oh! so much nasty lines in the error console, But don't worry you need not to read all the content in console.
Just find out the line which start with Caused by:
That line give you the potential information about the problem in your code.That will give you line number in
xml file which is throwing the above errors. 

In the above error console if you go to the line Caused by: You will see 
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException;
It means you have some extra spaces in your xml configuration file.You need to observe the undesired space in the following xml tags.

 

 

XML TAGSTATUS


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>Correct


 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>Incorrect


< ?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>Incorrect


<? xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>Incorrect


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"? >Incorrect







If you will see the above incorrect xml tags carefully, You will find that there is space between '<','?' and '>' which raise error in xml configuration file.


Solution:

In order to remove the above error you need to remove unnecessary spaces and correct the indentation.If you are copying xml file some where, do it very carefully.

How to Create a Namespace in Aerospike Database

                      T his post is about creating a namespace in Aerospike. I could not find any concrete method to create a namespace like create database in MySQL and MongoDB. So I am suggesting a way to create a namespace in Aerospike Database. Step-1: Locate config file aerospike.conf and open it in your favorite editor and make sure you have permission to modify the file.
